"Unreported" Trades on the tape, dark pools?

On the Time and Sales on Interactive Brokers a lot of trades come through highlighted as yellow which indicates its "unreported"

From IB website this is defined as:
"The "Last" price for trades that occur under certain circumstances such as being part of a spread trade, a trade reported late, or some other special condition trade, are not shown in TWS market data, but by default will now be displayed in Time & Sales for the underlying. These "unreported last" ticks are identified in Time and Sales by a yellow tick dot."

Is this going to be trades from dark pools?

Usually, trades that were done out-of-sequence (adjustment, late, as-of, etc.), or on legs for spread. Crosses (or from so-called dark-pool) are seen as regular trade, sometimes marked with a Crossed marker.
